// For better and for worse //

In the heart of the uneasiness of domestic violence, there is a taboo : violence against men. The phenomenon of battered men are really good though. While the number of female victims of spousal violence has been declining for many years, the number of male victims is increasing. According to the National Observatory of delinquency and criminal responses, a man dies every thirteen days under the blows of his companion. They would be 130,000 per year, not counting all those who are too humiliated and hide it.
